Ceramic journey

ceramic platter

I’m still trying to work out my ceramic journey – perhaps the joy is in the experience of the journey as much as the sense of finding ‘the’ path? Anyway, after my recent visit to Queensland where I saw a fabulous slab platter I decided that I really needed to experiment with this form. Big thick slab, seeming to float in defiance of their weight and size…. mmmmm….. This beautiful showy glaze covers a lino cut embossed into teh clay forming a rippled surface which is just affecting the glaze and not really visible in the photograph. Its about catching the right light. So this is a path that I am joyously skipping along at the moment, anticipating curves and corners up ahead.
